About this pack
The Japanese film look is one restraint applied to many scenes, and this system holds thirty of them. The delicate portrait end where skin is pale and nothing moves; the everyday street end with firmer contrast and grain in the concrete; the rainy overcast end where the whole frame goes grey-green; and the scan-match looks built to sit beside a real lab scan. What every preset shares is the green-leaning tint, the muted colour and the bounded fade. It nests all five japanese-film 10-packs. Thirty presets organised as a system, named by place and strength, with a one-page guide to which preset suits which light. XMP for Lightroom Classic and desktop, DNG for the free Lightroom mobile app. Japan Film is for photographs that would rather be still than loud.

The look is inspired by Japanese consumer colour-negative film such as Fujifilm Superia 400. This product is not made, licensed or endorsed by Fujifilm. Inspired by the look of classic film. Not made, licensed or endorsed by the film's maker.
Japan Film is the subtle roll: colour held back, greens natural and slightly cool, skin delicate and never warmed, blacks lifted a little so the frame is quiet. It is the alley at noon, the shrine in rain, the vending machine at night, the train platform, the moss on a Kyoto wall. The dialect is restrained, still, serene, hazy, everyday. Nothing is pushed. Grain is fine and the fade is gentle. Every pack answers the same question: which place, which light, and how much green.
Every pack here is its own product with its own page, so you buy the one look you need, and a larger pack or the family collection is always one step up from it.
